 * Hello together,
 * I have A LOT of old Layouts that were working with the old Display method for
   the Title. By now I had it in a way that seemed pretty nice for me and it worked.
 * Now 4.4 came and kicked me in the balls 🙂
 * My old Title-Tag was empty and a second one created below …. or the second one
   was there all along, but as the first one was still working i never realized 
   it.
 * Be it as it is… I need a little help.
 * I have used this for my Title Tag Display:
    <title><?php wp_title( ‘|’, true,‘
   right’ ); ?></title> <meta name=”DC.Title” content=”<?php wp_title( ‘|’, true,‘
   right’ ); ?>”> <meta property=”og:site_name” content=”<?php wp_title( ‘|’, true,‘
   right’ ); ?>”> <meta property=”og:title” content=”<?php wp_title( ‘|’, true, ‘
   right’ ); ?>”>
 * Now with this new Version I do get ONLY
    <title>NEW TITLE</title>
 * How can I add the three other ones WITHOUT Plugins and shit?
 * Kind regards

 * Hook ‘wp_head’ (specify priority 1) and echo out the meta tags you want. Instead
   of using `wp_title()`, which is slated for deprecation at some point, try using`
   wp_get_document_title()`, which should match whatever text occurs in the new `
   <title>` block.
 * This code could be placed in functions.php of a child theme, or start a site 
   specific plugin to contain all of your hacks. I know you said no plugins, but
   this would be YOUR plugin to contain all of your hacks, not other people’s bloated
   code 😉
